INTERNATIONAL STUDIES BACHELOR OF ARTS Description The International Studies relies on integrating knowledge from disciplines with research and analytical skills, social and cultural understanding, and practical experience. Graduates will demonstrate a high level of competence in academic written English. The combination of the knowledge of disciplinary fields with practical knowledge develops the foundation for careers in public and community service, diplomacy, the private and public sector, and graduate studies in the humanities and the social sciences. In fast-developing and changing societies such as the United Arab Emirates, the people who understand the dynamic nature of the globalization of societies, their institutions, problems, and opportunities can most competently advance effective social, economic, and political developments. The International Studies program in the College of Humanities and Social Sciences leads to a Bachelor of Arts degree. It provides a rigorous education in the political, economic, and socio-cultural aspects of the complex interrelationships that exist within and among nations in a rapidly changing and increasingly interdependent world. It also prepares students to be effective, globally aware decision-makers in the opening years of the 21st century. Building on a foundation of faculty strength across disciplines in the social sciences and humanities (anthropology, comparative literature, history, international relations, political science, and sociology), the International Studies program is further strengthened by faculty expertise in the major world regions of East Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and the Americas. Through rigorous training in interdisciplinary research methods and acquisition of knowledge of different world regions, this program provides global awareness and understanding of the transnational flows of people, ideas, technologies, information, and capital. Zayed University Learning Outcomes College coursework and out-of-class experiences provide opportunities for students to develop competency and document achievement in the Zayed University Learning Outcomes. Instructors assess student achievement in the Zayed University Learning Outcomes through the normal assessment process in each course. Advisors monitor student development and, during the fourth year, prior to internship, a team of program advisors and instructors assesses ZULO achievement levels and readiness for internship. Demonstration of competencies in ZULOs related to the major is assessed through periodic assessments by instructors and advisors during the undergraduate program. Program Learning Outcomes Upon successful completion of this program, students will be able to: 1. Disciplinary and Interdisciplinary Knowledge: On successful completion of the program, the student will demonstrate a solid understanding of major ideas, works, theories, and debates in the humanities and social sciences, analyze various connections across these disciplines, and apply this knowledge when explaining the relations between states and non-state actors at the local, regional and international levels. 2.
